About School Apprenticeship Link (SAL)

The School Apprenticeship Link (SAL) is a new initiative in hairdressing, beauty & retail.

They are in years 11 & 12. They have all been interviewed to be part of the program.

Jodee Pereira has worked on many projects including CSSN, LearnScope and PDSP. She has a passion for learning technologies and exploring innovative ways to engage her students and assess.

Carolyn O’Connor and Andrea Quintal have worked on CSSN and LearnScope projects. Carolyn uses WebCT to deliver some of her courses.

In 2006, Jodee, Carolyn and Andrea attended professional development courses & presentations on mobile technologies (including PDAs) for delivery and assessment. They are keen to use PDAs in the beauty clinics and to enhance students learning in the classroom.

Narelle and Sue are relative newcomers to learning technologies and have expressed interest in developing innovative solutions for their work environments, which are, of course, very hands-on. Sue has attended some professional development workshops on using PhotoStory and MovieMaker to create training videos.
